they are doing it better than almost any other state with the exception of california. so two issues. senate, remember you voted to send them over there on our credit card. how about taking care of them at home. and the second one is make sure you do it in a military way. very practical grass root as approach like texas is doing. >> very well organized it sounds like to me. how about we can't not discuss you this, the scandal surrounding david petraeus' resignation. do you think he should have resigned since he is serving such a critical role? >> yes, i think general petraeus, who is without any question one of the finest generals of our generation did the right thing. because general petraeus knew what a leader really means in the military. and that is a leader is given great responsibility and with that authority, but with them both goes accountability. because he well understood that if you lose the trust, a purposeful group will discindy great eventually into chaos. even though it may seem cruel to civilian life, it is what is most wanted by the american people in t

and california has suffered so greatly. i mean, when i served in the state legislature our budget went from 110 billion to 83 billion. clearly california could not cut anymore without seriously compromising education. and so at a certain point you have to recognize there's two ways to close a deficit. one is to cut, and one is to bring in revenue. and cutting you just can't do forever. and so the balanced approach that california has demonstrated is definitely the approach of the nation. >> are you surprised that california's passed this, though? because you have to couple that again with another i believe it was a quarter cent tax increase overall just state-wide on everything from 7.25 to 7.5? they both passed. >> right. no, no, no, i'm not surprised at all because of the devastation that the state has felt with cuts, particularly to education. i mean, k-12 education you now have classroom sizes increased, you have teachers that were laid off, you have the classroom year being cut back by potentially one to two weeks. and

california, the prop 8 decision where voters of california voted to allow same-sex marriages and then a few months later voted to write into the state constitution that such unions were illegal. if the supreme court decides not to take up that case, then people in california -- gay people in california would be able to get married almost immediately. but if they do take up the case, then the question of a right to marry goes to the supreme court. very fascinating time. >> are you surprised that they decided not to -- >> yes, i am surprised. and i will be even more surprised if they don't do something on monday. i think a lot of people are waiting. >> i'm hoping that the supreme court will weigh in on this. i want to see the courts and perhaps the legislature deal with this and not leave to the voters because the voters often get these things wrong. i don't think civil rights question shoes go to voters partly because you get into the thing of the whim of the voters and where the political whims are. we don't vote in this country on fundamental rights. freedom of speech will always be
